Kennedy was assassinated on this day in 1963 in Dallas, Texas November 22, 2006. EUTERS/Jessica Rinaldi DALLAS (Reuters) - The piano on which the late John Lennon composed his famous anti-war song "Imagine" made an odd appearance on Wednesday at the site where U.S. President John F. Kennedy was gunned down, competing for attention with conspiracy buffs on the 43rd anniversary of the assassination. The plain-looking brown piano has been brought to America for exhibits by British pop star George Michael and his partner Kenny Goss. Michael bought it in 2000 at an auction for 1.45 million British pounds, which is today worth $2.78 million. "George and Kenny are very focused on world peace and they wanted to bring the piano here as a message of peace at this iconic site," said Barbara Buzzell, spokeswoman for the Goss Gallery in Dallas, where the piano goes on display next month. The piano spent the morning covered in canvas at the so-called "grassy knoll," where many conspiracy theorists are convinced at least one unknown shooter fired the shots that killed Kennedy as his motorcade swept past. Investigators maintain the act was carried out by Lee Harvey Oswald acting alone and that he fired the shots from the sixth-floor window of what was then the Texas School Book Depository building. Oswald was himself subsequently gunned down while in police custody. Dozens of conspiracy believers were out in force at the site on Wednesday, hawking cloak and dagger books with titles like "High Treason". An Elvis impersonator was also on hand. But the piano briefly stole the show after its canvas was whipped off for a few minutes. "It's kind of weird. It seems people care more about a musician who wasn't even from America than they do about JFK," said Danny Steis, a 25-year-old bystander taking in the proceedings with his niece under a cloudless Dallas sky. The ex-Beatle Lennon and Kennedy were both icons of the 1960s who were assassinated but had little else in common. Lennon was murdered outside his New York apartment building in 1980.

Funny, I was doing some research regarding Tavistock and the Beatles and came up with some stuff about JFK being killed on a Masonic site, John Lennon was killed by FreeMasons, but when I tried to access the link on this one site, I couldn't find anything regarding the subject matter. here's a couple of links that you may want to look at: whale.to/b/lennon.htmlThis article is quite lengthy, but it would be worth your while to examine it as well: members.tripod.com/therev67/masonsandmystery/masonsandmystery.htmIf you scroll down to the part about JFK's assassination, there is a little bit about John Lennon and the dialog from King Lear printed from "I Am The Walrus". I thought it a curiosity to be mentioned in the same section. Certainly both lives ended with untimely deaths. The FreeMasons rule the world.....

I thought it a curiosity to be mentioned in the same section. Certainly both lives ended with untimely deaths. The FreeMasons rule the world..... If John Lennon was killed by masons, then why doesn't the FBI/NYPD/CIA/MI5/MI6, Yoko Ono's Yasuda Banking Zaibatsu Billionare Dynasty etc. have the masons responsible arrested? Because they are all controlled by masons too? That seems wag-the-dog illogical. If the December 8 (anniversary of the US declaring war on fascist Imperial Japan) 1980 shooting of Lennon, that had a devestating effect on the morale of the left and liberals, was an assassination conspiracy or a faked shooting of Lennon who had been replaced years before by Charlie Brll etc., and it was definitely one of those two, then it was carried out from the highest levels on down and with media disinformation operations in tandem as well. That means only the groups with the most power and ability to do this were the perpetrators, and that is the US government and intelligence agencies, with a little help from British intelligence. The Beatles were a government operation to begin with.

Sorry, dear. I still don't buy that. Like I've stated before, I can see them being given the bum's rush. If they were being used by the gov't(s), I don't think that those boys knew what was REALLY happening.

The bankers control the freemasons. The most common branch of masonry you'll see directly involved in Oceania-based operations -- BEATLES included -- is the Scottish Rite which in turn was essentially created by MI6 in the 17th century. FBI director J. Edgar Hoover was high up in the Scottish Rite during Beatlemania, there's a shrine to him in the grand temple, he's essentially a saint to them, but I digress...

Haven't listened yet..... just FYI Quote: Tue. Febuary 6, 2007: 90 minutes Individual MP3 files: 1st half of show (45 min. 31 sec.) www.jfkmontreal.com/AstuciaReport/Astucia_Report_Feb_06_2007_1st_half.mp3 2nd half of show (44 min. 29 sec.) www.jfkmontreal.com/AstuciaReport/Astucia_Report_Feb_06_2007_2nd_half.mp3 Quote: Topic of Show: John Lennon's Security on the Night he was Murdered Hosted by Salvador Astucia Synopsis of Show: Salvador Astucia talks, via telephone, with the communications director of Manhattan real estate management firm, Brown, Harris and Stevens, the company that managed the Dakota condominium complex where John Lennon lived and was murdered on Dec. 8, 1980. Astucia also calls and speaks with a vice-president of the Wackenhut Corporation because he suspects Lennon's true killer, Jose Joaquin Sanjenis Perdomo, was placed by Wackenhut as a security guard (or doorman) at the Dakota. Astucia asks the following questions to officials at Brown, Harris and Stevens and Wackenhut: Describe the nature of any business dealings between Wackenhut and Brown, Harris and Stevens, particularly those that may have occurred in December 1980(?) Provide all you know about the security guard/doorman on duty at the Dakota condominium complex when John Lennon was murdered? (Dec. 8, 1980 at 10:50 pm) How does Wackenhut respond to the allegation (made by many people) that the firm is responsible for the murder of union activist and nuclear plant whistleblower Karen Silkwood? What was the nature of Wackenhut's business relationship with the late William Casey, former CIA director during the Reagan administration? At the close of the show, Astucia explains how he determined that Jose Joaquin Sanjenis Perdomo was Lennon's true killer. Astucia also evokes the 1966 landmark Supreme Court decision of Miranda vs. Arizona which addressed the problem of police using coercion to extract false confessions from suspects. Astucia compares Mark David Chapman to other people who gave false confessions, like John Mark Karr, the man who recently confessed to the murder of JonBenet Ramsey, but prosecutors declined to prosecute Karr because his explanation of the crime did not match known details of the case. Astucia also cites the case of the Central Park Jogger, where four teenage boys confessed to raping and severely beating a 28-year-old Caucasian female investment banker jogging in Manhattan's Central Park, in 1989, only to have the true rapist confess years later. (Five boys were convicted of the crime, but only one denied any involvement.) Astucia notes the irony of the Central Park Jogger case because it was botched by the NYPD and Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau, the same people who sent Chapman to prison for killing Lennon. www.jfkmontreal.com/AstuciaReport/ar_page.htm_________________

Press Conference-like interview with Fohn Fennon, expounding vaguely and broadly about Reagan and sociopolitical trends, Yoko Ono beside him, on December 8, 1980, four hours before it was announced that he had been shot at the Dakota. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ht1cG7pdAaI

Ok that interview was partially included on my Milk & Honey CD. However, they conveniently left out the part with him saying that the politicians are fine and that it's the peoples fault (he almost sounded supportive of Reagan).... That really pisses me off.
John said that he had learned more since he was 23... More like he was further brainwashed.

John said that he had learned more since he was 23... More like he was further brainwashed. He was always optimistic in his interviews, perhaps one of the reasons why people loved him so. In light of the fact that Reagan made it fashionable to mock the Homeless, I doubt that Lennon would have stood by considering their plight in his Adopted Home City. Nobody knew what was coming at that time. And nobody knew about Iran/Contra. The article that was posted by Eyesbleed is interesting. Note how this writer from a major News outlet uses the word "swept" instead of "crept" when describing the motion of JFK's motorcade. And note the description of the crowd. It has the Elvis impersonator and the ones carrying "cloak and dagger books". Translation: a bunch of kooks, rather than a group of people expressing the beliefs of a majority of Americans. The writer also cannot form more than one association comparing Lennon to Kennedy.
